The nats have a handful of pretty interchangeable C prospects with Read, Severino, Gushue and Reetz so I don't think the 'who' on that 3rd piece matters much.
Would it take Robles and Kieboom? I stumbled onto Kieboom while I was watching Soto rocket through the system and am pretty sold on him as a long-term asset. With Turner already in Washington, he may be blocked.
If you can get Robles and Kieboom, you have to do that, right? I'd honestly be a little surprised if the Nats gave up that much but they might be desperate to capitalize on Harper's potentially last ride.

I’d gladly do it for Robles and Garcia. If they want Merrifield, would throw him in and ask for Kieboom, too.
Kieboom was frequently mentioned as a trade target in last year’s Royals thread (by me).
It’s worth mentioning that they have talked with the Nats about Robles before. Almost had a deal for him in 2016.
